We are now seeking additional members to join our Voluntary Board of Trustees

About you:

We are keen to attract people to our Board with skills, knowledge and experience in accountancy, finance, law and
fundraising. However, all applications will be considered.

As well as our AGM, the board meets once a month with the occasional extra informal meetings being held, as required.
The role of Trustee is primarily governance and is a voluntary post. Expenses will be reimbursed.

It would be expected that Trustees attend monthly meetings where possible. Our AGM is taking place at the end of
September where 2 potential trustees are being nominated for election onto the board. This would be the ideal
time to welcome other new trustees to the enthusiastic existing board.
